Contest problems with connections to deeper mathematics
This question is with regard to Elkies' answer to the above post.
What is the complexity of computing the determinant of a given $n \times n$ full rank Moore matrix modulo some integer?
Vandermonde determinant can be computed in $O(n\log^{a}{n})$ for some $a \in \mathbb{R}_{+}$.
Can Moore determinant be likewise reduced from $O(n^{3})$ to $O(n\log^{b}{n})$ for some $b \in \mathbb{R}_{+}$ (if so is there a reference)?
